Sliding window very stiff!

Post by Iceworx »

Anyone got any good idea's or tips of how I can free up my sliding window?

Its so stiff, it feels like the glass will break before it moves.

Checked in the runners and cant see anything obvious blocking it...

Thanks in advance :) :ok

Had the same problem.

Managed to get the window moving by using a suction puller on the glass as well as some silicon spray in the runners.
